Description
Letters of correspondence between the Handys, Charles Lloyd, and Andrew Best. The first letter, from Elizabeth Handy to Charles Lloyd, informs Lloyd of Charles Handy's desire to do a major rewrite of "Understanding Organizations" and to take the book deal out of the hands of Curtis Brown Ltd. The second letter, from Andrew Best to Charles Handy, encloses a draft which, upon Handy's approval, Best would like sent to representative Neil Middleton at Penguin. The letter also seeks to confirm the percentage guaranteed to Best for handling "Understanding Organizations." The third letter, from Charles Handy to Middleton, explains to Middleton that Handy would like his literary affairs in the hands of Curtis Brown Ltd. and that he has plans for further books.
